Song in my heart...

Skip the add when you get the opportunity.

Don't you love it when there's a song in your heart?  I'm not talking about that song that gets stuck in your head...no, I'm talking about a song in your heart.

10,000 Reasons by Matt Redman has been in my heart all day long.  Do you know this song?  I've included the link above, if your so inclined.

My latest treatment was Thursday, December 26...and boy did this one kick my fanny.  I've been in a fog for the past four days.  But today, when I woke up from my nap (I get a lot of naps after treatment days) this song was on my heart.

"You're rich in love and your slow to anger.  Your name is great and your heart is kind.  For all your goodness I will keep on singing.  10,000 reasons for my heart to find."

I am so blessed.  I'm blessed beyond material things - and in material things, as well.  For example, today I needed to refill a prescription and our out of pocket cost was $5.69.  Insurance paid $77.12.  What a magnificent blessing - what a great God and provider we have.  But beyond the material, physical blessings, He is great to put a song in my heart.

I could sit with a downcast heart, my thoughts could lean toward the negative, my focus could be on my situation.  But instead, He placed a song in my heart...not just any song, but a song of thanksgiving, a song of love, a song of joy.

"And on that day when my strength is failing, the end draws near and my time has come.  Still my soul will sing your praise unending...10,000 years and then forever more!"

If He should take me...my song will not end with my last breath.  My soul will continue to sing forevermore!

I am glad there is a song in my heart today... I'm glad this song is in my heart today!

"Bless the Lord, Oh my soul.  Oh, my soul.  I worship your holy name.  Sing like never before.  Oh my soul.  I worship your holy name...I worship your holy name."
Matt Redman, Sparrow Records

Only By His Grace,
